Chapter 205: Play God!

Thor woke from a nightmare, gasping for breath. He slowly opened his eyes and gazed at the gray-white ceiling.

Hmm, white?

"Are you awake? Are you... all right?"

A voice broke through his thoughts, pulling him back to reality.

Thor turned his head, frozen for a moment, and saw a face adorned with a warm smile.

He had to admit that Wanda looked very pleasant even with her gentle smile. It's a pity that the character in the movies has a rather tragic arc, with her journey often marked by suffering.

In the films, she rarely smiles as the lead character should. Her fate seems to be one of the most tragic among the characters.

Yet, in this moment, Wanda's smile seemed genuine, like a refreshing spring breeze.

Moreover, from Thor's perspective, it looked quite vivid!

Thor, however, remained emotionally unmoved.

Nonsense, with this black-and-white filter and a resolution of 320x259740, even a child could see the limitations!

Damn it, the mysterious reward from the system didn't say it would make me colorblind!

He quickly abandoned his earlier thoughts when he noticed a hand concealed behind Wanda's back, holding a faintly glowing red energy ball.

Despite Wanda's casual demeanor, her eyes were intensely focused on Thor, and the tension was palpable.

Is she trying to disarm me with a smile and then strike?

Thor glanced around and realized he was lying on a sofa in a small bar downstairs from a hotel. The surroundings, including the architectural style and the waitstaff's attire, appeared to be from the 1960s...

Did I time travel? Or was I reborn? Or am I experiencing some sort of body switch with Wanda? And what's up with this pixelated style?

As Thor was about to speak, a flood of information surged into his mind.

"Uh... I'm fine. Well, I have a headache and my throat is dry. Could you get me a bottle of 28-year-old Lafite?"

He decided to put off speaking to Wanda to process the influx of information.

The red energy ball in Wanda's hand faded away, and she still watched him with suspicion as she went to the bar.

I, Thor Odinson, come from a mysterious organization known as the Men in Black. I am a confident and humorous ace agent, code-named H, renowned for my exceptional skills and striking appearance.

But ever since I saved Earth from an alien invasion with Agent T, I've stagnated due to complacency, embodying the stereotypical "middle-aged" professional [slacking, overly talkative].

After drinking a case of counterfeit wine before a critical mission, I missed the mission and retired with a hefty severance. Subsequently, part of my memory was erased, and I lost all contact information for that organization.

However, due to my numerous misdeeds, I became a target for many.

This sums up my situation: a classic scumbag + Aquaman template!

Thor couldn't help but feel frustrated. What kind of bizarre situation is this?

However, he soon felt a bit relieved upon realizing that his lightning powers and Phoenix Force remained unaffected.

That was enough; strength is always crucial.

Mjolnir, which he never part with, had become an accessory he carried with him and was now in his possession.

Stormbreaker was currently missing, but Thor could sense it wasn't far off and could be summoned at will.

"System, what's going on? Where am I?"

Thor was confused.

"The coordinates in reality are located in Long Island, New York.

However, under the influence of Scarlet Witch's magic, the entire area within the barrier has become a different world.

The black-and-white effect might be due to her abilities not being fully developed, resulting in imperfections in the created world."

Marvel's version of Minecraft?

"Then what about my identity? How did I become a MIB agent? It seems to be from a popular movie!"

"While you were unconscious, I conducted a preliminary scan.

Everyone here is not an illusion but real people. However, each seems to have forgotten their original identities and assumed new ones.

It's akin to the world in *The Truman Show*.

Fortunately, due to the effect of the 'Guardian of the Mind' skill, you retained your memory and abilities and have not been affected by the Chaos Magic Power."

"..."

Thor gasped. Is this a complete witch? The Wanda who fought Thanos in the final battle wasn't this formidable!

"So," the system concluded, "this is her most powerful ability, Alter Reality."

"No."

Thor interrupted: "She's playing God!"
